PeaceQuest Greater Lansing is coodinated by Greater Lansing United Nations Association and is one of more than 200 local chapters of UNA-USA, in partnership with local organizations and individuals.
Events are hosted by many local organizations that promote peace and justice, including the Peace Education Center, faith communities, NGO’s and others. All events are related to peace in some way.

Culver’s restaurants will also host two fundraising events.
